Nourishing Meat Salads can be served as the main course or as a side dish. They look more attractive when served with vegetables and bring bright variety to any festive menu. According to сulinary traditions, meat salads can fully replace the main course of meat or fish. This dish does not contain much fat and is healthy.

To cook delicious salads as side dishes, people often choose chicken meat. Such salads can be served cold, after lightly frying in a frying pan and being cut into thin strips. Salads from beef are more nutritious, and a salad from pork can also be the basic dish.

Cooked, baked, smoked or grilled meat goes well with beans, cereals, potatoes or mushrooms. Use mayonnaise, sweet mustard or garlic yogurt sauce for any salad. Meat for salads can also be boiled. Use low-fat varieties of beef, lamb, veal, poultry.

You can try a dressing with a mixture of lemon juice, olive oil, and a few drops of brandy to taste. Make the proportions of vegetables and meat at least 3:1.
